 BELTLOOPS & Pins
What they are and how to earn them! Whatever your Cub Scout-age boys love to do, there’s probably a belt loop & pin for it. Whether it’s Geology or Golf, Music or Marbles, Science or Soccer—there’s plenty for everyone in the 25 Academics and 28 Sports subjects available. And, the best part is...You & your scout can work on these electives outside of the pack as well!
We know that as a parent or den leader, sorting through requirements for 53 different awards is a daunting task. But don’t worry—help has arrived. The BSA’s Cub Scout Academics and Sports Program Web site has all the requirements for each award.
The process is simple. Just click on the name of the subject your boys are interested in, and you’ll go to the list of requirements for earning the corresponding belt loop and pin for that topic. And, parents, don't forget to talk to your den leader after your cub scout has earned each beltloop or pin so that they can earn the proper recognition. ADDITIONAL AWARDS TO EARN
Outdoor Activity Award, Religious Emblems, World Conservation Award, Leave No Trace Award & Emergency Preparedness Award
